*Bookish Introverted Accountant and Morally Grey Ranch Boss 
*Arranged Marriage 
*Dark Western/Mafia 
*‘My Wife’ Obsession 
*Twisted Surprises 
*Gothic Atmosphere
There are four of them. 
Four brothers in the Tempesta family, one of the most dreaded Mafia names in the world. 
And I’ve been ordered to choose which one I’ll marry. 
This sacrifice is the cost of my twin brother’s survival and I’ll pay it without hesitation. 
For years I’ve tried to escape my family’s criminal legacy. 
I should have understood this was always a fantasy. 
It doesn’t matter that I moved to a different city or that I changed my name and stayed far away from the chaos I was born to. 
In the end, I cannot outrun the obligations of blood.
With my brother’s life on the line, I’ll honor the deal that promises to keep him safe. 
As a cruel favor, I’m allowed to pick which one of the fearsome Tempesta brothers I’ll walk down the aisle with. 
One week among them is all the time I’m given to make up my mind. 
Just one week in their vast ranch fortress in a remote corner of Wyoming to decide which of these formidable men I’ll agree to marry. 
They are all different. 
All gorgeous and seductive. 
And all uniquely challenging in their own way. 
But one of them stands out and fascinates me to the point of obsession. 
Years ago, Julian Tempesta saved my life and now our intense physical attraction is undeniable. Julian, as the charismatic eldest brother, is also the natural leader and protector, not a man who intends to use me and then callously crush my heart to pieces. 
When Julian says this marriage will be real, I believe him. 
I’m in far too deep by the time I understand the truth. 
I’ve foolishly trapped myself in a devil’s bargain. 
And now my ‘husband’ will be my undoing…
Cora Brent was born in a cold climate and escaped as soon as it was legally possible. Now, she lives in the desert with her husband, two kids and a prickly pear cactus she has affectionately named ‘Spot’. Cora’s closet is filled with boxes of unfinished stories that date back her 1980’s childhood and all her life she has dreamed of being an author. Amazingly, she is now a New York Times and USA Today bestselling writer of contemporary romance and begs not to be awakened from this dream.
